And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
(2 Thessalonians 2:11)
Well, well, well, what have we here. Is this not the statement from God that the world will be led astray by mainstream science? Like the Pied Piper of Hamelin? This is the reason for my sense of urgency in wanting to write Matty’s Paradigm.
The delusion has many components which have been brought together over the course of hundreds of years. A book that was very helpful to me years ago is “Evolution: The Lie,” by Ken Hamm, but this is actually just a small part of the strong delusion. The delusion is what we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) refer to as the dominant paradigm of modern science (DPMS). As a theoretical foundation for the prevailing narrative of godless existence we’ve identified 5 axioms of mainstream science:
The Induced Axioms of Mainstream Science (SciPop)
Axiom | Title | Scripture |
1 | There’s a causal relationship between space-time and gravity | Isaiah 48:13 |
2 | Earth orbits the sun | Ecclesiastes 1:5 |
3 | Stars are distant suns and galaxies | 1 Corinthians 15:40-41 |
4 | Nuclear decay has always been constant | Deuteronomy 32:22 |
5 | Humanity is a product of of biological evolution | Romans 5:12 |
None of these key theoretical building blocks can be proven, they are all leaps of faith. How is God lying if he is telling the truth about the lie that people want to believe so that they can deny God?
